David Richardson, the new head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, told staff on Friday he will “run right over” anyone that resists changes and that all delegation of authority in the agency is immediately suspended.

Richardson spoke one day after he was appointed to replace acting FEMA chief Cameron Hamilton, who was ousted by Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after telling a congressional hearing he did not support eliminating the agency.

    Whoa whoa whoa. I might be in Texas, but I certainly didn’t vote for this administration. Yes, I have boots and yes I use the straps to pull up my boots, but I also recognize and vocalize that no one can pull themselves up by their bootstraps and furthermore that some people can’t even afford boots.

    Wish for something more localized, like bigot-eating wolves or racist-seeking lightning.
